This one just made me happy.
These guys just love hanging out together. In that picture are five young men, still early in their careers and yet in such a great place. Am I right in thinking that this is the most we’ve seen Spurs players hanging out since the Coffee Club?

Don’t get me wrong, one luxury of being a Spurs fan is appreciating how drama free the team can be for extremely long sessions. When a player doesn’t fit the team, they seem to mutually separate. Not every single time, and as time goes on some players may throw more shade on the past, but overall, the parting is amicable.

From left to right you have Dylan Harper, age 20 who just wrapped his premiere on a tear as one of the best rookies of the season. he threw some crazy numbers in the postseason and handles the spotlight like it was built for him.

His move to San Antonio was a great pairing, one of those moments where the Spurs get credited for a “steal,” which is saying a lot for their impressive recording of finding hidden gems who were right in front of everyone’s eyes.
Standing center (which feels like exactly the right place for him to be standing) is Keldon Johnson, the elder statesman of the Spurs draftees and the longest tenured member of the squad. He had some postseason challenges, but we know Keldon, and he’s going to come back hard this season. He has motivation from within and now’s he’s got a sense of the weight created through series after series of best of sevens.
